PRE-INSPECTION

IMPORTANT! MUST READ BEFORE OPERATION

New equipment must receive a pre-operation inspection and adjustment. *INITIAL DELIVERY CAN LOOSEN HARDWARE AND CONNECTIONS* Areas directly affected by highway travel & initial start-up: trough sets, sheaves, sprockets and pulleys mounted to shafts with removable bushing-type hubs. Components are mounted securely at the factory but will go through a seating process during the primary startup. Electric motor drive direction must be checked prior to installing drive belts. For the first month of operation; all bushings and cap screws should be checked once a week, then during regular shutdowns. This is important to prevent miss-alignment and equipment failure. Gear Reducers maybe shipped WITHOUT lubrication. Refer to the manufacturer’s brochure for recommended lubrication. Failure to do so will void manufacturer’s warranty. *IT IS ESSENTIAL TO READ AND UNDERSTAND THE “INITIAL SETUP SECTION” PRIOR TO STARTUP.*

MAINTENANCE GENERAL Maintenance can only be performed when equipment is LOCKED OUT. Since the equipment usually has a large inertia force they do not stop abruptly. It is important to make sure all components are at a state of ZERO ENERGY. Any components that may move during the servicing must be blocked or restrained. Maintenance should only be performed by those who are trained to do so safely. A supervisor must know the whereabouts of all the maintenance personnel at all times. Preventive Maintenance is an important part of productive equipment. Replacing worn-out parts during scheduled shutdowns is much more beneficial than replacing broken parts during a production cycle. Some general rules to follow:

1) Check oil levels regularly

2) Lubricate components regularly (not while operating)

3) Monitor the motors power consumption

4) Keep machine and its components clean

5) Repair leaks quickly to prevent further damage

6) Monitor all vibrations

7) Replace broken or cracked components

8) Always consult the manufacturer prior to welding

9) Tighten all loose fittings and components

10) Regularly test safety equipment and shutoffs

11) Maintain proper belt tensions (both drives & conveyors)

12) Keep conveyor belts properly trained

If and when welding or cutting is required, the manufacturer must be consulted. Materials used on equipment are not all the same, so welding or cutting may be difficult/detrimental if the material properties are not known. Always protect hoses, belting, and any flammable materials when performing maintenance to prevent a fire or damage. A trained person with fire extinguishing equipment must be present when welding or cutting.

Owner’s Manual “Operation, Maintenance & Parts”

LUBRICATION It is important to lubricate components and maintain proper oil levels. Refer to the manufacture’s brochures for lubrication and oil recommendations for bearings, reducers, motors, motorized head pulleys, crushers, screener, etc. Always check that the component is not permanently sealed before attempting to lubricate. Any adjusting bolts, pivot points, slides, etc. should be lubricated with standard oil with detergent.

PULLEY MAINTENANCE All pulleys should be checked for shaft tightness. It is important to inspect bushings for proper seating and cap screws for proper torque. This should be done at least once a week for the first month of operation, then during shutdowns thereafter. Pulley lagging must be checked for wear, cracks and bond. Faults in anyone of these will result in belt slippage. Inspect the ends of the pulleys for cracks or fatigue. If there is any sign of either, the pulley must be taken out of operation or fixed. Take-up pulleys and belt tension devices must be inspected. Excessive belt tension will cause premature failure of pulleys, bearings and shafts. Pulley alignment is critical. Misalignment can result in improper belt tracking which will cause premature pulley and idler wear. Pulleys must be kept clean and free of built up material. Only clean and service pulleys when equipment is not in operation and locked out. Bearings should be visually checked for excessive shaft movement and vibration during operation. Then check bearings for alignment, lubrication and tightness while equipment is locked out. Never operate the equipment without guarding in place.

BUSHING INSTALLATION & MAINTENANCE BUSHING INSTALLATION

Remove all paint, oil, grease and anti-rust inhibitors from the mating tapered surface of the bushing(s) and hub(s). Make sure that the shaft, bushing(s) and hub(s) are otherwise clean and free of burrs. Do not lubricate the bushing taper, the capscrews, or the product tapered bore and threaded holes. Lubricating these parts or surfaces could lead to breakage of the product. If the pulley is to be keyed to the shaft, make sure both shaft and bushing keyway(s) are clean, smooth and free of burrs. Check the key size with both shaft and bushing keyway(s). Key(s) should be placed into the shaft keyway(s) at this time. For conveyor pulleys requiring 2 bushings, shaft

keyways must be in line with each other for proper bushing installation. To assure the proper transmission of torque, all bushings used in drive pulleys must be keyed to the shaft. Place the shaft into pulley, being careful not to damage the bore of the hubs. Then slip the bushings onto the shaft and into the hubs. Line up the drilled holes of the bushings with the threaded holes of the hubs. Place and hand tighten the capscrews into the threaded holes of the hubs. When satisfied with the position of the shaft, slightly tighten the capscrews so the bushings are snug in the hubs. With a torque wrench, alternately and evenly in one bushing only, tighten the capscrews to the recommended torque values. Do Not Tighten More Then Recommended Values. Make sure that the bushing flange face surfaces on both sides of the split are even.

Never exceed recommended torque in attempt to pull bushing flange flush with hub face. When tightened there should be clearance. If bushing flange is pulled flush with hub face while tightening capscrews, check for undersized shaft. If the problem persists, call the manufacturer. Once satisfied, tighten the next bushing. BUSHING MAINTENANCE For the first month of operation inspect bushings, capscrews and check capscrew torque at least once a week and thereafter during periodic shutdowns. To remove the bushings all capscrews must be removed. Then insert the capscrews into the threaded holes of the bushing. Gradually tighten the capscrews alternately and evenly in one bushing only, until the bushing becomes loose. If the bushing doesn’t become loose immediately, tap on the hub with a hammer. Once satisfied, loosen the next bushing.

HYDRAULIC MAINTENANCE All hydraulic components must be brought to a zero energy state prior to any repairs or maintenance. It is important to visually inspect hoses for wear, cracking and leakage on a regular basis. If hoses show any signs of damage, they must be replaced. For wear problems, it is best to locate the source and fix the problem to prevent continuous damage. Hose clamps must be kept tight. When repairing any hydraulic problem, it is very important to keep all components clean and free of contamination. After maintenance is completed, the hydraulic system must be checked leaks. Never repair any leaks while the system is pressurized. Always keep a safe distance away from any moving components and repair areas when initially pressurizing the hydraulic system. Hydraulic oil should be checked once a day. It is important that all cylinders must be retracted before checking oil. The oil temperatures and pressures should be monitored during normal operation periods. Breather caps and filters must be kept clean and in proper working condition.

TAKE-UPS Inspect take-up rod threads prior to adjusting to avoid non-repairable damage. Adjust take-ups on a regular basis to maintain proper belt tension and tracking. Lubrication of the take-ups is entirely up to the operator based on the surrounding working environment. Moisture, dust and corrosive materials all affect the take-ups differently. The take-ups are shipped dry from factory but supplied with grease fittings.

BELT TENSION & REPAIR Conveyor belts must be adjusted regularly. For new belting it is important to adjust tension in small increments as the belting stretches. Over tightening a new belt will permanently stretch it. Belting should be visual inspected on a regular basis. If the belting is damage it must be repaired or replaced. It is important to keep the belt trained. This helps to avoid damage and leakage.

Fastener plates too long for pulley size: replace with smaller fasteners; increase pulley size. 25. Imp roper transition between troughed belt and terminal pulleys: adjust transition in accordance with

Goodyear Handbook of belting. 26. Severe convex (hump) vertical curve: decrease idler spacing in curve; increase curve radius; consult

Goodyear Handbook of Belting for assistance. 27. Excessive forward tilt of trough rolls: reduce forward tilt of idlers to no more than 2 from vertical. 28. Excess gap between idler rolls: replace idlers; replace with heavier belt. 29. Insufficient transverse stiffness: replace with the proper belt. 30. Pulleys too small: use larger diameter pulleys. 31. Increase screw take-up tension to value determined from calculations. 32. Counterweight too heavy: lighten counterweight to value required by calculations. 33. Pulley lagging worn: replace pulley lagging. 34. Insufficient traction between belt and pulley: lag drive pulley; increase belt wrap; install belt

cleaning devices. 35. System underbelted: recalculate belt tensions and select proper belt. 36. Excessive sag between idlers causing load to work and shuffle on belt as it passes over idlers:

increase tension if unnecessarily low; reduce idler spacing. 37. Improper storage or handling: refer to Goodyear for proper storage and handling instructions. 38. Belt improperly spliced: resplice using proper method as recommended by Goodyear. 39. Belt running off-centre around the tail pulley and through the loading area: install training idlers on

the return run prior to tail pulley. 40. Belt hitting structure: install training idlers on carrying and return run. 41. Improper belt installation causing apparent excessive belt stretch: pull belt through counterweight

with a tension equal to at least empty running tension; run belt in with mechanical fasteners. 42. Improper initial positioning of counterweight in its carriage causing apparent excessive belt stretch:

check Goodyear Handbook of Belting for recommended initial position. 43. Insufficient counterweight travel: consult Goodyear Conveyor and Elevator Belt Selection Manual

for recommended minimum distances. 44. Structure not level: level structure in affected area. 45. Cover cuts or very small cover punctures allow fines to work under cover and cut cover away from

carcass; make spot repair with vulcanizer or self-curling repair material. 46. Excessive cover gauge ratio: use a belt with a lower gauge ratio and/or a thicker carcass.

EQUIPMENT SETUP FROM TRANSPORT Before setting up equipment an adequate area must be selected. It is important to consider overhead and underground cables, maneuverability and functionality. All equipment must be cribbed or blocked. It is very important to have a level and solid footing. Equipment cannot become unstable while operating. It must be level and regularly checked. Once equipment is in position and blocked, any access ladders, etc. can be put into place. All adjustable components need to be locked into their working position. (Refer to Plant Specific Operating Instructions). While lifting components into position, always use the proper techniques. Everyone must be in clear view of the operator and in a safe zone. Electrical cables must be located away from traffic areas. Cables cannot become damaged; they must be repaired or replaced by a qualified electrician. Before startup one must go through the “Pre-Operation Checklist”. During operation it is important to pay attention to the equipment and surrounding environment. Always acknowledge unauthorized people approaching the equipment. Take note of the noise, vibrations, smells and output of equipment. If there are any changes in these, equipment should be observed closely to prevent further damage.

EQUIPMENT SETUP TO TRANSPORT As operations reach completion and equipment is being shut down for transport, several steps need to be taken. Prior to anything, equipment must be shut down and at a zero-energy state. The power cords must be disconnected and wrapped up. All components must be shifted and locked in their transport position. (Refer to Plant Specific Operating Instructions). Equipment should be cleaned off and the general area should be cleaned up. Tire pressure and wheel lug nut torque should be checked. A brake and light inspection must take place when a tractor is hooked on to any equipment. Warning signs and flags must be attached to equipment. Know and follow weight and dimensional restrictions. It is important to follow the recommended limits on towing speed.

SAFETY

Im portant

A good safety program makes provisions for hazard identification, open lines of communications, allocation of responsibilities, record keeping, training and, regular inspection and program audits both internal and externally conducted. Communication is the key to improving the effectiveness of safety programs. Post all regulations, safety reminders, results of safety audits, newly found hazards, etc. All personnel should be encouraged to ask questions and to bring safety related matters to the attention of everyone. All personnel need to be “Proactive” not “Reactive” when it comes to safety. Anticipate possible accidents and continually review the workplace for possible hazards. All employees have accountability to themselves and their colleagues to achieve safety excellence. Safety needs to be an integral part of every employee's job and a working climate needs to be developed where safety is highly valued by each and every employee. Educating and training employees is mandatory to achieve safety excellence. In addition to the applicable company, industry, provincial and federal regulations, the latest edition of the following codes and standards are recommended for your safety training programs and information/reference manuals:

INSTALLATION AND SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS

Our Impact System is a proven, reliable system for handling severe impact loads experienced at the loading point of bulk material handling belt conveyors.

The system consists of four-foot long impact bars with four impact frames and f ive-foot long impact bars with f ive impact frames. Heavy-duty applicat ions may require addit ional frames. Special lengths can be made by placing addit ional bars and frames in-line with each other. Bars may also be saw-cut to special lengths. Standard systems are available for 20 O and 35 O troughing angles.

Whatever the length and troughing angle ordered, these parts are shipped unassembled: impact stands, impact bars, and fasteners.

Complete assembly, as shown on the drawing is accomplished at the installat ion site.

Reliable operation and long service life depend on the care taken during installat ion.

The maximum operating temperature for the Impact System is 185 O F (85O C).

Safe practices for operating belt conveyors are given in American National Standards publication, " Safety Standards for Conveyors and Related Equipment” ANSI B20.1, Section 5 and 6.01.

Proper personal safety equipment and clothing must be worn and only persons completely familiar with these standards should be allowed to operate or maintain this equipment. Failure to observe these safety precautions and other specific procedures emphasized throughout these instructions may result in personal injury or damage to equipment.

IMPACT SYSTEM INSTALLATION

Before installing the system on an existing belt conveyor, be certain the conveyor is stopped and locked out to avoid injury and property damage.

1. Prepare conveyor stringers for installation of the base frame assemblies. Refer to the drawings for spacing of frames. Note the difference for four and five foot standards. We recommend a steel roll troughing idler 3" - 12" from each end of the impact bars making sure they are outside any impact area.

2. If a standard four or five foot system is going to be extended in length, the last frame must be shifted by three inches to enable the ends of both adjoining bars to rest on the same support frame. The base frame and the impact bar supports have holes on both flanges to accept impact bar fasteners from both adjoining bars.

3. Prepare customer supplied shims for installation between conveyor stringers and base frames. Shim thickness must be calculated to provide the specified clearance between conveyor belt and top of impact bars. (Shimming of idler frames may be necessary to achieve recommended clearance.)

Note: The recommended clearance varies with the length of the impact bed system. The longer the length, the greater the clearance.

Recommended Clearance

4. Remove mud, stones or any other debris from conveyor stringers and deck plate. Remove all burrs, dents and bumps caused by excessive weld splatter so that the impact system frames can be securely positioned level with the plane of the conveyor and perpendicular to the line of conveyor belt travel.

5. The Impact System may be completely assembled and placed on the stringers as a unit, if space permits (See Illustration 1). If not, proceed to assemble as follows.

MAINTENANCE

Before maintenance is performed on the system be certain the conveyor is stopped and locked out to avoid injury and property damage.

This impact system is self-contained and basically maintenance free.

By removing the support arm, the troughing sections can be lowered for easy inspection and replacement of bars. Impact bars need to be replaced when the top UHMW polyethylene is worn through.

One size impact bar f its all frames at all loading points, unless special lengths are involved.

The impact bars and fastener assemblies are the only components that need to be inventoried. See drawings for number of bars required per belt width.

Do not allow constant contact between belt and horizontal impact bars: see page 11 for proper clearance. preventing spillage.

The belt edges will contact the impact bars,

Only one (1) T-Bolt is required per Impact Bar per Frame. The Frames are manufactured with one (1) extra hole per Frame to simplify installation by avoiding the need for Right and Left hand assemblies. Only four (4) T-Bolts are required to fasten a 48" bar to the Frames and five (5) for the 60" Bar. Use ½" standard bevel washers [16-2/3% slope, ≅9.5°] when bolting directly to channel flanges. Torque lock nuts for T-bolts to 35-40 lb-ft. For further instructions and safety precautions please refer to the “Installation Manual” prior to installation.
